Congratulations on passing BCRAN. However, if you used the Paquet CiscoPress
book, I wouldn't exactly call it reviewing a few chapters. Rewriting a few
chapters would be more accurate! This book has glaring errors on just about
every page, and I am astonished that CiscoPress doesn't have a link to an
errata for it. The errors are not merely typos, but whole sections of
commands repeated with the same error (example "dialer-map" instead of
"dialer map"), completely misleading and erroneous information about "dialer
enable-timeout" and "dialer hold-cue", etc. And who can forget the assertion
that you use Reverse Telnet through Windows 95 HyperTerminal to configure a
modem attached directly to the local PC!
After reviewing the material on the Cisco web-site I realized that Cisco
could have presented questions that could have failed nearly everyone if
they wanted to. Even Cisco's own documentation occasionally has errors.
